I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointing with his index and middle fingers, saying. "The time of my Advent and the Hour are like these two fingers."  

البخاري:٤٩٣٦حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْمِقْدَامِ حَدَّثَنَا الْفُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ؓ قَالَ

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ هَكَذَا بِالْوُسْطَى وَالَّتِي تَلِي الإِبْهَامَ بُعِثْتُ وَالسَّاعَةَ كَهَاتَيْنِ
